a Bizarre evening

 

               WEDNESDAY 6/2/21 12:05AM--just go back from the Main Stage Grille open mic...I maintain that my guitar playing sucked, but it wasn't my fault...I hope to go again next Tuesday...the guy who was semi-in charge was Max, who I had known several years ago...the woman who played Bass was his wife Ruth whom I also knew from back in the day...David R., the "harp" player I was in Sugarmoon with was there...He told me he hoped to do a song with me, but it didn't happen...
     There was a guy sitting at a table that looked like a guy I had been in a pair of bands with, not to mention we went to high school together...turned out it was him...why he sat there for about three hours w/o saying hello to me will remain a mystery...
      Had I actually run into Debbie Haines there, I would have barely been more shocked...after all, I was in Howard County...of course, only The Universe knows where she is now, if she's still alive...
      I'm starting to have a bit of an identity crisis...am I a MontCo musician? am I (almost) a part of Ray's Annapolis gang? Or am I joining CJ's Howard County crew? is it possible to be in all three? *I* dunno...
12:42PM--just heard from Lou...he wants me to come visit...he might come to Main Stage in a couple weeks or so...
4:45PM--again today I went to Litz... but this time I got acoustic gtr. strings...I guess I'm not done with Ray yet...but I don't plan on seeing/sitting in with him until June 9th...Killarney is only 10 miles or so closer than Pirates Cove, but it seems  closer than that...
9:42PM--I find myself fantasizing about the set I would/could/might play the next time I go to the Main Stage...and to some degree, the reaction I might get...and I MIGHT just bring the gizmo--it's just as easy to set up as three stomp boxes...of course I'm gonna absolutely make sure IT works before it goes anywhere...I can hardly wait until next Tuesday...gonna load it up with batteries...one less cable to worry about...
